VINYL CHLORIDE MONOMER
Chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHCs)
More resilient to biodegradation, unlike simple hydrocarbons
Man-made CHCs are beginning to accumulate in theenvironment.
BASIC IDEA BEHIND THE PRODUCTION OF VCM
PRODUCTION OF VCM IS ESSENTIAL TO THE PRODUCTION OF POLYVINYL
CHLORIDE Many CHCs are created during the production of PVC this is
a growing concern.
VCM needs to be produced in a way that will minimize ortotally eliminate the release of CHCs into the environment.
